A case of laparoscopically assisted transperineal repair of anterior enterocele dehiscence with small bowel evisceration after robot-assisted radical cystectomy

We herein report a case of successful laparoscopically assisted transperineal repair of anterior enterocele dehiscence with small bowel evisceration after robot-assisted radical cystectomy. A 75-year-old woman underwent robot-assisted radical cystectomy with anterior vaginectomy and urethrectomy for bladder cancer (pTisN0M0). Vaginal reconstruction was performed using the posterior vaginal wall. Four months after surgery, she presented with small bowel evisceration due to anterior enterocele dehiscence. She underwent laparoscopically assisted transperineal repair. The anterior enterocele dehiscence did not occur at the vaginal closure site but instead between the vaginal wall and posterior pubic bone. No recurrence had developed at 2 months postoperatively.
